How to follow the listening trail26 seconds

Pitch Trail follows Eguchi's Chord Identification method: listen, choose the matching color, and add new chords gradually. See also the Ichionkai Perfect Pitch Program.

Ear first. Names later. Colors are easy names for whole chord sounds. After nine colors are strong, note names fade in after each answer.

Meet the colors. Use the music-note explorer to tap red and yellow and learn their sounds.

Keep it tiny. Short trails continuously revisit the sounds that need more practice.

Grow automatically. Strong recent trails add one new color, with no calendar wait.
